Job Description

Teach at a public high school in Richards Bay where your planning, marking and patience all count. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

The work is in Richards Bay, KwaZulu-Natal, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day.

The work, day to day

  • Use data projectors, smartboards or tablets where the school has them
  • Meet parents to discuss progress, behaviour and support plans
  • Plan weekly lessons against the CAPS annual teaching plan
  • Prepare Grade 12 learners for prelims and the NSC exams
  • Set, mark and moderate formal assessment tasks for the term

You'll need

  • Full SACE registration (provisional registration only for student or newly qualified teachers)
  • A B.Ed, or a degree plus PGCE, in the phase and subject you'll teach
  • Good spoken and written command of the language of teaching
  • Sound knowledge of CAPS and the assessment policy for your phase
  • You can manage a class of 35 or more without losing control
  • At least 1 year of classroom teaching, including teaching practice

Helpful, not essential

  • Comfortable with Google Classroom or Microsoft Teams for homework
  • Experience marking for the NSC or IEB

What's in it for you

  • Housing allowance for SGB and state-funded posts where it applies
  • Paid SACE CPTD workshops
  • Fee discount for your own children at independent schools
  • School holidays in line with the school calendar

How to apply

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: SACE registration certificate plus police clearance issued in the last 6 months.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 9 working days.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

  • Put your SACE number, phase and subjects on the first line of your CV; heads sort applications by subject first.
  • Mention the extra-murals you can run, as smaller schools often choose the teacher who can also coach.
